So ${test} seems to be ignored or misinterpreted.


You could try creating ./global_settings.py in :

     from django.conf import global_settings
     global_settings.SECRET_KEY='green'

     print(global_settings)   # testing purposes!

Now:
  % python -c 'import global_settings'
<module 'django.conf.global_settings' from  
'/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/django/conf/global_settings.pyc'>
